More Dakka is the art of solving problems by unloading as many rounds of ammunition at them as possible. While Improbable Aiming Skills are all very well and good, sometimes you just need to throw a wall of bullets at the target — perhaps your foe can Dodge the Bullet, or you're up against a whole army of Mooks at once. Modern automatic weapons can achieve the rates of fire required for more dakka all by themselves, but using a whole bunch of slower-firing guns works too. More dakka can even work against targets where conventional attacks are normally ineffective — even if each shot only does Scratch Damage, it will succumb to a Death of a Thousand Cuts eventually. After all, There Is No Kill Like Overkill... or so we are led to believe. Occasionally, the only point of a seemingly overwhelming and gratuitous show of force is to hammer home the point that the Monster of the Week simply cannot be defeated through ordinary means. Aim is also a factor: large volumes of fire accomplish surprisingly little in the case of A-Team Firing or if the shooters are graduates of the Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy. And sometimes, the guns in question are really, really big. More often than not single-barreled, though you can always add more barrels. Gatling Good is a common way of achieving more dakka, and you can expect to see gratuitous camera shots devoted to torrents of spent shell casings produced by the volume of fire. If you're strong enough, you always have an option of taking a heavier weapon off its mount. On a more restrained scale, The Gunslinger may specialize in squeezing more dakka out of seemingly ordinary firearms with Guns Akimbo, which can also be downright terrifying. May result in a Multiple Gunshot Death. See Macross Missile Massacre, which is basically this except with missiles, and Bullet Hell, which is the Logical Extreme version of this trope in video games. If dealing with energy weapons (IE: weapons powered by electricity/plasma/etc instead of bullets), its counterpart is Beam Spam. Contrast Improbable Aiming Skills, when a character uses amazing accuracy instead of volume of fire. Also contrast Ammunition Conservation, when a character shows restraint regarding how much ammunition they use. Not to Be Confused with baka, as there certainly IS such a thing as too much baka. Also not to be confused with Dhaka. Related to When All You Have Is a Hammer…, more dakka is a Sub-Trope of Spam Attack, but with bullets. The Trope Namer is Warhammer 40,000, where it is the Ork onomatopoeia for machine gun firing, and their general term for rapid fire capacity: "dakka-dakka-dakka-dakka...". Inverse of Ammunition Conservation, where the priority is to utilize the absolute least dakka necessary. noreallife |

It's a staple of the Terminator films to have at least one scene worshipping this trope, but undoubtedly the best and most memorable is the T-800's minigun rampage against the police at the Cyberdyne building in Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Surprisingly for this trope, it's literally Bloodless Carnage because John Connor ordered the T-800 not to kill anybody; the Terminator's HUD implies that nobody was even injured. ("Casualties: 0.0", suggesting that it might have assigned a decimal point for someone with a bullet wound who was not dead.) | |

Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Homura Akemi fights using regular guns. Thanks to her magical powers (namely, a Hyperspace Arsenal hidden in her sleeve and time control to a small extent), she can drown her enemies in bullets, rockets or explosives in the bat of an eye. Mami Tomoe has been shown to achieve overwhelming amounts of bullet curtains while using her magic, which is quite a feat on itself, considering she uses single-shot muskets as her weapon of choice. Naturally, when these two fight in Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Rebellion (while time is stopped, no less), it results in a spectacular display with bullets flying in just about every possible direction resulting in what can best be described as a starburst of dakka. Once time resumes, the destruction caused by bullets alone leaves the area looking like something out of the London blitz. Homura's Limit Break in the game Magia Record is her first firing a few normal bullets, then throwing grenades, stopping time, and then letting them all loose, resulting in much damage. In the season finale of the anime adaptation of Magia Record, Holy Mami summons a massive swarm of hundreds of muskets. The resulting barrage is so massive that it shreds everything in its path and even Yachiyo's Storm of Blades attacks can't keep up. Yachiyo and Iroha likely wouldn't have survived if Sayaka hadn't joined the battle. |

The Ez8 from Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team; unlike the standard RX-79[G] Gundams, the Ez8 carries machine guns in its head to fire more rounds per second. Ironically, the one time it goes all out and fires every weapon it has at once, every single shot misses its (stationary!) target completely. | |

Dick Tracy has more tommy gun use than most PG-rated movies. (The gun use is cartoonish to make it resemble the comic strips, and true to Cartoon Physics, Flat Top even uses one to write a message on a wall with bullets in the opening scene.) In the novelization of the movie, when Tracy investigates, the other police are upset when he tells them to gather every spent shell as evidence, because they know it will take a very long time to do that. There are just so many. | |

The Salvation War appears on the surface to follow this trope, with how much hell ends up being rained down on Hell in the first book. The second book however reveals that the key element of dakka, ammo, has actually run precariously low by the end of the first book, and there's no "magic" quick-fix for rapidly rebuilding the ammo stocks any time soon.* Michael-lan mentions this trope by name: | |

Sons of Guns lives off this trope. They once linked three M-16s together to fire simultaneously. They also built a rig to mount and fire four MG-42s at once. The client who asked for this originally wanted it to use .50 caliber Browning M2s, but changed his mind when it was calculated that a minute's ammo alone would cost thousands of dollars. |

Angel has Wesley, armed with two guns, shooting at the seemingly invincible Beast repeatedly with no effect. When he runs out of ammo, he takes out another bigger gun and continues to shoot while walking closer to said enemy. It doesn't work. Wesley also shows himself to be a proficient A- and D-type even in the early days of Angel, pinning a loan-shark's gun-holding hand to the wall with a crossbow bolt before he can loose a shot and turning the dropped gun on his hired hands before they've drawn in "The Ring" and puncturing a fast-moving canister of liquid nitrogen with a handgun in "Expecting". |

The Whiteboard: Doc Nickle has so much fun with this you can practically hear him cackle, "Dance Trope Dance!" During the Zombie Apocalypse storyline in 2010, Doc and Roger roll out in the APC from Aliens, with 50,000 rounds of .50cal ammo for the turret guns. It's not specified, but given their propensity towards spam attacks, it's doubtful much (if any) of that was left by the time they were done ripping up the zombie hordes. Regular paintball guns also get this kind of attention, though much of what's portrayed in the strip would be completely illegal on any reputable paintball field on the planet—and the characters are often called out on them. Deconstructed with Rainman, who's trash talk is said to drown out his wallet's screams for mercy. On the other end, Bandit is either an inversion or aversion, as he DEFINITELY believes in "enuff dakka". |

A subversion in The Expanse: believing Holden to be a terrorist responsible for the destruction of Martian flagship the Donnager, the Secretary-General of Earth sends a tac team of assassins to take him out. After tailing him to a hotel lobby, they promptly unload several automatic weapons' worth of bullets at Holden and his crew. Thanks to a conveniently placed couch and the intervention of Miller, nobody ends up shot except the tac team themselves. | |

The Honor Harrington books feature tribarrels, the largest of the major types of hand weapons. They seem to be essentially high-tech miniguns. Plus, military doctrine when it comes down to actually firing boils down to "put as many missiles into space as is humanly possible." | |

In The Simpsons episode "The Cartridge Family" (which generally pokes fun at America's gun culture — both sides of, no less) we see an NRA meeting where Moe explains how "with a few minor adjustments you can turn a regular gun into five guns!". None of them are automatic, though. Moe has his regular shotgun in the centre, with four others around the barrel of said shotgun, held in place by pieces of metal. There are four strings that run from the shotgun's trigger to the four other guns. Moe really doesn't like people staying in the bar too late. | |

If there is one show on TV that takes the concept of more dakka and runs with it, it has to be MythBusters. ANY episode involving firearms, explosives, incineration, or destruction in any form (and a few that don't) will be cranked up to as big and loud and damaging as possible (and possibly continue to be cranked up). An M134 minigun has been used twice on the show: once by Jamie to test the myth behind the phrase "easy as shooting fish in a barrel" (Adam: "Was that easy?" Jamie: "Yeah, pretty easy."), and once by Kari to test if it's possible to saw a tree in half with automatic fire (it is). |

Bungo Stray Dogs: Chuuya Nakahara uses this trope in a somewhat unusual manner as he doesn't use a gun but does use bullets. He utilizes his Gravity Master powers to rain these hundreds of bullets down on enemies at one point, similarly to the Mami example mentioned below. | |

The Millennium Earl in D.Gray-Man will sometimes send hordes of low-level Akuma after the heroes. Since each Akuma is a living (sort of) machine gun, this naturally results in More Dakka. | |

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann contains examples of this, most notably Attenborough's creation of a weapon that fires on every point in space time. The series CMoA page claims this is enough dakka, but is proven wrong as the movie adaptations contains even more dakka. | |

V for Vendetta. Creedy brings a squad of Fingermen with fifteen-round semiautomatic pistols along to hunt for V near the climax. The mooks even form a semicircular firing squad and open fire in unison, led by Creedy's heavy revolver, as they empty their pistols into V. An armored breastplate under V's cloak keeps him on his feet long enough to kill all of them (including Creedy), but enough rounds penetrate it to inflict fatal injuries. | |

In an episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Carl, after being harassed by a murderous family of robotic cloudcuckoolanders, asks them to play "Count the Bullets". Then he whips out the minigun. As many people didn't consider the short clip to contain enough dakka, one Youtuber created a ten minute version. The robots didn't consider it enough dakka, either: they eagerly reported the number of bullets (15,943) and asked for more, claiming that bullets are like vitamins to them. |

RWBY: The weapons of both robots, such as the Atlesian Knights (who fire a hail of bullets from their fingertips) and people, are capable of overkill where firing ammo is concerned. Huntsmen often have weapons that look traditional or old-fashioned, such as axes, maces, hammers, javelins, blades, etc. However, most of them are made out of modern technology and will transform into various types of firearms. Examples include Ruby's scythe which is also a high-impact sniper rifle or Nora's war-hammer, which is also a grenade launcher. The fashionable Coco's handbag transforms into a rotary cannon, and Dr. Oobleck's thermos flash transforms into a flame-thrower. The exceptions seem to be Jaune and the Malachite sisters. Jaune's weapon is a sword and collapsible shield that either function as a traditional sword and shield or can combine into a dual-edged sword. The sisters rely on claw weapons and bladed heels. | |

Less realistic vehicles from the G.I. Joe line are festooned with guns. The Rolling Thunder, for example, has two heavy missiles each with six cluster bombs, a turret-mounted cannon with several missiles attached, a chin-mounted laser cannon, twin .50s over the cockpit, and four twin laser cannons to the sides. It also carries two detachable vehicles — a rack of six more missiles and a mini-tank with twin machine guns. And if that wasn't enough, some of the toys from that line also feature 3 mm bars for the older C-jointed weapons to clip onto, which adds yet another layer of weaponing to the already ridiculously overarmed figure. |

Although absent from the anime, the Trigun manga features a certain group who are Masters of Dakka. This is demonstrated when their premier fighter Livio the Double Fang is introduced, whose dual Punishers can shoot forwards, backwards, left, and right at the same time. There's so much dakka in the fight between him and Nicholas that you can barely see what's happening. | |

A common but practically futile tactic used in Assassination Classroom. Koro-sensei, the target, can easily dodge every ounce of rapid fire dakka aimed at him using his super-speed. In fact, the series opens with the students opening fire on Koro-sensei as he takes opening roll-call. As the series progresses, the students start coming up with more creative uses of this strategy, such as aiming around him to reduce his concentration and seal off possible escape routes. | |

Necessary as the unusual biology of the Chtorran worms makes them effectively Immune to Bullets; even though the protagonist empties a couple of magazines into a rampaging Chtorran he still doesn't kill it. | |

In Super Dimension Fortress Macross/Robotech, there is the Daedalus Attack. The Daedalus, one of the "arms" of the SDF-1, is shoved through the hull of an enemy cruiser while every mecha on board is moved to its bow. Once in position, the forward bay is opened, and all the drones fire everything they have inside the enemy ship. The Macross franchise in general also has a tradition of armored versions of their variable fighters who play this trope straight, starting with the VF-1J GBP1S Armored Valkyrie that Hikaru uses in one episode of the original and culminating with the VF-25S/F APS-25A/MFS25 Armored Messiah from Macross Frontier that not only adds more guns and missiles (including 4 nukes) than any prior armored pack, but is also the first that can transform into fighter and gerwalk modes. Then there's the Earth defense fleet shown in Macross Plus. The amount of dakka parked over the Earth counts hundreds of thousands of warships and satellites on top of six Grand Cannons, each capable of taking out over half a million ships in one shot. It's a common joke among the fandom that you can walk across low Earth orbit with the amount of ordnance parked up there. |

Used hilariously in one episode of Metalocalypse, where Dethklok took a trip to the Amazon. In order to make a clearing to drop the gigantic boat that would be transporting the band, Dethklok has the Klokateers destroy a gigantic portion of the forest using several high-caliber Vulcan cannons and rapid-fire rocket launchers, tearing apart the local wildlife and Crozier's soldiers. The boat landed waaaay off target. | |

In addition, when Caliborn (who is all but confirmed to be the young Lord English) is exploring his land, he comes across Gamzee, who offers to be his guide. The two options both are just a picture of Caliborn's face. Whichever one you pick, it ends the same way: with Caliborn filling Gamzee with bullets over four successive Flash animations.

In Space Marine Battles, There Is No Kill Like Overkill, so seeing the Space Marines fire a wall of lead thick enough to walk on it at their enemies is something of a common sight.

The Godfather: Sonny Corleone may have been a tough son-of-a-bitch, but it's hard to believe that they really needed to shoot him about three hundred times with five or so Tommy Guns from all directions in order to kill him. Then again, this was a rival gang doing the shooting, so (1) they want to make sure he's dead, and (2) There Is No Kill Like Overkill helps to send a message to their rivals: cross us at your peril. Unfortunately for said rivals, Michael basically responded, "You want a war?! You got it!" and proceeded to take out the rival gangs without mercy. | |

Iron Kingdoms: The hat of Cygnar in WARMACHINE. Most factions tend to put large one-shot weapons or grenade launchers on their warjacks and field artillery platforms; Cygnar will field warjacks with a minigun in each hand and machine gun emplacements that rely on volume over power. | |

Schlock Mercenary has "The Seventy Maxims of Maximally Effective Mercenaries" which includes such rules as: Maxim 34: If you're leaving scorch marks, you need a bigger gun. Maxim 37: There is no 'overkill'. There is only 'open fire' and 'I need to reload'. Schlock Mercenary also has such things as this little gem. The note says it all: The spaceship designers know that principle too. |

Exalted: While the game doesn't usually indulge in this, Shards of the Exalted Dream introduced the warstorm shellcaster, which is basically a machine gun the size of a man that is powered by the rage of its inner spirit. The first rule when dealing with a Solar brandishing a warstorm shellcaster? Be somewhere else. When he pulls out Steel Sunbeam Radiance, you should probably be in another city. Preferably in another country. On a different continent. | |

Stargate-verse: In Stargate SG-1, this is one of the key advantages of human projectile weapons over Goa'uld energy weapons. At least until Anubis equipped his Kull Warriors with rapid-fire staff weapons. Then the humans switched to slower firing weapons that worked on the otherwise invincible warriors. The humans also use this trope when they construct their own starships. Rather than arm them with energy weapons (that comes later since they don't know how at first), they have automatic railguns. These are used to great effect on Stargate Atlantis during the Wraith attack at the end of Season One. In the Stargate Atlantis episode First Contact, a group of unknown aliens are abducting some of the cast while one of them puts up a defensive shield. The Atlantis group just unloads their firearms into the shield until it finally breaks. |

In all versions of Ghost in the Shell, Section 9 and other gun-using entities frequently use lots of automatic fire. Both the Major and Batou often use submachine guns or assault rifles on full-auto, and the Tachikoma Spider Tanks are mounted with tri-barreled Gatling guns. Heavy automatic fire is usually needed due to fighting armored or cyborg opponents. All the bullets flying also makes it harder for the faster enemies to avoid being hit. | |

Light and Dark The Adventures of Dark Yagami: Where to start? How about the gun Dark uses to shoot 1,000,000 stormtroopers? You read that right, one million stormtroopers. He gets these kills in 100,000 rounds, fed from a magazine any Ork would envy, with such impeccable accuracy that he inflicts lethal wounds on ten men for every single bullet. That's not even the best part. He does all of this in the span of ten minutes. That's 10,000 rounds per minute on average. To put that in perspective, the GAU-17/A a.k.a. M134 minigun maxes out at six thousand rounds per minute. DAKKA. | |

The Macross franchise in general also has a tradition of armored versions of their variable fighters who play this trope straight, starting with the VF-1J GBP1S Armored Valkyrie that Hikaru uses in one episode of the original and culminating with the VF-25S/F APS-25A/MFS25 Armored Messiah from Macross Frontier that not only adds more guns and missiles (including 4 nukes) than any prior armored pack, but is also the first that can transform into fighter and gerwalk modes. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: In Iron Man, the Mark I suit is immune to the small-arms fire of the Ten Rings gunmen. But the heavy machine gun manages to seriously damage it, forcing Tony to fire his main rockets and flee before the job is done. Also in Iron Man, Obadiah Stane's Iron Monger suit packs a ridiculous amount of firepower: a rotary missile launcher, a heavy missile launcher, a huge Gatling gun... In Iron Man 2, War Machine, just like his comic book counterpart, is essentially the Mark II Iron Man suit fitted with every gun they can strap onto it. In the invasion of the final HYDRA base in Captain America: The First Avenger, the Allied attackers carry only conventional guns while the HYDRA defenders have their plasma blasters - but there are a lot more of the attackers. In The Avengers (2012), when Iron Man and Captain America capture Loki, Iron Man arms and activates every weapon he has to threaten Loki. He has a lot of them. Sadly, we never get to see what most of them are. In all his appearances, Rocket Raccoon adores big guns, the bigger and faster-shooting the better. |

Dungeons & Dragons: There are options for achieving this general effect. D&D 3.5 has a "mild" version which works on ranged attacks has you placing anywhere between twelve and twenty-four (depending on your interpretation of time-flow) separate attacks within a six-second timespan (one round) with a bow — by hand. The more extreme version falls within the bounds of the Spam Attack trope and features melee weapons and a positive feedback loop that essentially provides you with an infinite number of attacks within the span of a single round. | |

Storm Hawks: One episode features Snipe constructing a new flagship with a lot of blasters. In true More Dakka spirit, he is never satisfied, and constantly demands that more be added. This is lampshaded several times, when his subordinates point out that it is now too heavy to fly. In another episode, Piper convinces a band of scavengers to help her, and they do so by building a new ship out of whatever they can find — the end result is a couple of engines and mostly weapons bolted together. In the pilot, this actually works against Finn. He straps a ton of guns to his Skimmer's wings in preparation for fighting the Cyclonians...but the extra weight keeps throwing off his actual aim plus weighing his ride down. He actually does better when they end up blasting several of the guns off and giving him some maneuvering room. |

Imperial Military Personnel Stories has a squad of stormtroopers conduct a raid on a Davenport hangar bay. While one freighter, suspiciously similar to the Millennium Falcon, gets turned into flaming wreckage by a hail of blaster fire, the second spacecraft escapes into the atmosphere. While many of the Imperials continue firing at the fleeing vessel, one in particluar, armed with a full-auto repeating blaster, keeps shooting until a comrade thumps him to knock it off. "They're gone." The rest of the squad can only stare at this haywire trigger-happiness. Viewable on YouTube here at the 19:20 mark. | |

Taken to the extreme with Seras and her Harkonnen II, a pair of 30mm cannons weighing over 500 kilos each. While they're only semi-automatic weapons and should avert the trope, Seras can pull the trigger fast enough to make the trope apply, something she does to great effect against a Nazi airship sent to attack Hellsing HQ. | |

Subverted in Max Brooks' The Zombie Survival Guide. In the chapter on Weapons and Combat Techniques, Brooks reminds the reader that "you are going for a head shot: one bullet, precisely placed. As the machine gun is designed for saturation fire, it may take hundreds, even thousands of rounds for one, randomly lethal shot." Carried over in World War Z where one of the many blunders made during the Battle of Yonkers was using automatic weapons in place of precision shooting. |

Rebuild World: While the very money conscious Akira typically fights with Ammunition Conservation in mind, after he starts using a line of Bifurcated Weapon rifles that can match a chain gun in firing rate, he resorts to this at times. When Akira is surrounded by enemies with Chameleon Camouflage, he sprays the whole area he thinks they might be with bullets. He's rewarded with blood and gore flying through the air. During The Siege of Akira's Home Base, at one point he takes Carol's camper/APC filled with his ammo outside, sets both his rifles to max firing rate, and goes to town, jumping in and out of the vehicle to keep restocking while it's driven around to the highest concentrations of enemies. |

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Gundam Heavyarms, in its original state, carries a gatling gun longer than either arm as its primary weapon, twin Gatling guns hidden in the chest compartment, twin machine guns in the collar and twin Vulcan cannons in the head(not to mention all the missiles and a backup folding knife). Near the end of the series it gets upgraded to carry a twin Gatling gun, still longer than either arm. Gundam Heavyarms Custom from the OVA Endless Waltz carries TWIN dual beam Gatling guns as its primary weapon and FOUR Gatling guns in its chest, as seen here.◊ This version of Heavyarms lacks any melee weapon, unlike its appearance in the TV series. |

In The Powder Mage Trilogy the powder mages' magic gives them incredible control over gunpowder and firearms. They mostly use it for Improbable Aiming Skills as their powers let them turn a musket ball into a miniature guided missile with an incredible range. However, a master like Tamas can simply toss a sack full of musket balls into the air and give each individual ball the same momentum as if was being fired from a gun. Depending on how he times it, it will have the effect of a giant shotgun firing dozens of large pellets at once or the effect of a machine gun firing them in quick succession. So you get the effect of a modern machine gun using just blackpowder and lead balls but with no actual firearm present. | |

Star Trek: In Star Trek: First Contact, Picard leads some Borg drones into the holodeck, where he shoots them down with a submachine gun in the "Dixon Hill" program, having deactivated the safety protocols to ensure that holographic bullets were as deadly as the real thing. Star Trek (2009): The Enterprise has a more dakka than its original series counterpart, in the form of lots of fast-firing point defense turrets, which complement the multiple phaser banks and rapid-firing photon torpedo launchers nicely. In Star Trek Into Darkness, Harrison doesn't skimp on bullets when he wants to kill something. |

This is basically Leena's entire strategy in Zoids: New Century.

Toward the end of season four of Teen Titans (2003), the Titans are defending the tower and Raven from a resurrected Slade and his flaming demonic army from hell, and as a finishing blow Cyborg brings out a version of his Sonic Canon that seems to be bigger than he is and proceeds to wipe out the entire army, which the Titans together had been unable to beat until then, in one shot (which also drains all of the electricity from Titans Tower and most of Cyborg's own battery). (Well, he almost wipes the army out...) That's more a Wave-Motion Gun since it's just 2 shots. A better example is when we finally see what the Titans Tower security system looks like when it detects an intruder. Essentially, the ceilings are LOADED with laser turrets that all lock onto hostile targets. |

The Gundam series frequently features massive volumes of fire, usually from multiple Gatling Good rotary cannons. The Ez8 from Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team; unlike the standard RX-79[G] Gundams, the Ez8 carries machine guns in its head to fire more rounds per second. Ironically, the one time it goes all out and fires every weapon it has at once, every single shot misses its (stationary!) target completely. The RX-78NT-1 "Alex" Gundam from Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket, carries Gatling guns hidden beneath armor panels in both forearms which are used as the suit's secondary but most distinctive weapons. Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Gundam Heavyarms, in its original state, carries a gatling gun longer than either arm as its primary weapon, twin Gatling guns hidden in the chest compartment, twin machine guns in the collar and twin Vulcan cannons in the head(not to mention all the missiles and a backup folding knife). Near the end of the series it gets upgraded to carry a twin Gatling gun, still longer than either arm. Gundam Heavyarms Custom from the OVA Endless Waltz carries TWIN dual beam Gatling guns as its primary weapon and FOUR Gatling guns in its chest, as seen here.◊ This version of Heavyarms lacks any melee weapon, unlike its appearance in the TV series. The Gundam Leopard from After War Gundam X follows in the footsteps of the Heavyarms from Wing with a multitude of gatling guns, grenade launchers and missile launchers throughout it body. The piece de résistance however is the giant "Inner Arm Gatling" on its left arm. The later Gundam Leopard Destroy replaces this with Twin Beam Cylinders gatlings, one on each arm, to play this trope even straighter. Its Gunpla counterpart, the Leopard Da Vinci of Gundam Build Fighters Try, has a stupidly large set of weaponry in its "Heavy Armament Mode", including two beam cannons, two sets of missile launchers, two Heavy Beam Gatlings, and a beam rifle with a beam shotgun attached. Mobile Suit Gundam SEED has the Mobile suit Embedded Tactical Enforcers, or "METEOR" which is equiped with four beam cannons and 77 missile launchers, as well as the various shoulder, hip, chest, and DRAGOON based weaponry the mobile suits may already have. Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny has the "GFAS-X1 Gundam Destroy" Transforming Mecha, which manages to achieve More Dakka, Wave-Motion Gun, Beam Spam and Macross Missile Massacre all at the same time. It has no fewer than four 75mm automatic chainguns, but these are almost side-arms compared to the six Wave Motion Guns it sports between its two modes (two twin-barreled high-energy beam cannons on its back as a mobile armor, three 1580mm chest-mounted cannons and one 200mm face-mounted cannon that fire multi-phase energy in mobile suit mode), twenty thermal-plasma composite cannons, ten beam cannons (which can be detached as a pair of Attack Drones sporting five cannons each), and twenty-four missile launchers. In Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn, we have the Full Armor Unicorn Gundam, which adds rocket launchers, bazookas, grenade launchers, hand grenades and three shields armed with twin beam Gatling guns that, thanks to the Psychoframe attached to both the Unicorn and the shields, also allow them to function as Attack Drones. |

Hot Shots! Part Deux, parodies the need for dakka in Rambo, Commando, and other action movies from The '80s. There's a scene where Topper Harley (Charlie Sheen) kills people just by throwing bullets at them. Part of that scene even has a "kill counter" that points out when the scene's kill count has surpassed that of other films, finally declaring the film to be "The Bloodiest Movie Ever". If that weren't enough, there's also Topper standing in the last little bit of the boat up to his waist in spent brass as he decimates the Iraqi navy. | |

BattleTech: Among all the automatic weaponry, there's the Ultra Autocannon which can be set to fire two bursts instead of one, the Federated Suns' Rotary Autocannon which can fire up to six, and the LB-X Autocannon which is a rapid-fire shotgun scaled up for a mech. The Clan Hyper-Assault Gauss is More Dakka applied to gauss weaponry. And in the BattleTech RPG, the Clans also have manportable Gauss submachine guns. P90 railguns. Proven Alien-Killing Design + Railgun Power = MORE DAKKA. The physical embodiment of dakka in the setting is probably the Bane AKA the Kraken, a bulbous, 100-ton monstrosity with ten 20mm ultra autocannons to its name (and four backup machine guns, just in case). If it really has to, it can spit out 24 shells per turn. Unlike most of the dakka examples here, it's unlikely to kill anything quickly with all those small caliber rounds, but very few opponents are likely to want to stick around for a second go, and it has the ammo, heat sinks, and armor to do it all day if it wants. The Piranha mech was designed to be the ultimate Anti-Infantry mech. As it mounts 12 machine guns which can shred standard infantry to mulch, and even be a threat to light vehicles. |

Then there's the Earth defense fleet shown in Macross Plus. The amount of dakka parked over the Earth counts hundreds of thousands of warships and satellites on top of six Grand Cannons, each capable of taking out over half a million ships in one shot.

The lack of this is a plot point in Tremors 2: Aftershocks. Thinking they were "just" up against Graboids, Burt has a selection of large, high-powered rifles at his disposal, since the Graboids in the first film were Immune to Bullets while underground, since it's very difficult to shoot through dirt. When the Graboids turn into much smaller, faster, and more plentiful Shriekers, Burt laments the fact that he's carrying entirely the wrong kinds of weapons to deal with the creatures, and what he did have had been used up in his first encounter with them. | |

Due to their mutations, the Elites can heal injuries alarmingly quick, the only way to kill them is to almost literally fill them with lead. Lampshaded as Alex responds to this trope directly. | |

One episode of CSI: Miami revolved around the bad guys stealing a gun that shot so many rounds at once so quickly that it was called the "Vaporizer Gun". It's shown in action in the opening stinger. It's a thinly-disguised version of the Metal Storm system. | |

The "multiple-fire rifle" from Lone Wolf and Cub definitely counts. Since the setting is in the Edo period, the other gunsmiths aren't able to make more than matchlock rifles with excessive decoration, one character pushes gun technology by making a man-portable volley gun. It's a BFG with several barrels that fire at once, creating a shotgun-like spread weapon. The main character makes use of the gun several times, each time to devastating effect. | |

Notably averted and subverted during the run of Preacher, where machine gun wielding mooks who graduated from the Stormtrooper School of Marksmanship either always miss or never inflict more than a flesh wound, and all the named characters use either pistols or rifles that fire one shot at a time are much more effective. And the ultimate weapons in all the cosmos are a simple pair of late 1800s Colt Revolvers... if you can call a pair of guns forged by the Devil himself from the melted down essence of the first Angel of Death's sword and designed to never miss, never run out of ammo, and always inflict a lethal wound simple. And just for added fun, those guns are in the hands of an Implacable Man who doesn't even flinch from a direct hit from a nuke.note He even invoked this trope's subversion when he walked out of the mushroom cloud: "Not enough gun." You tell him he's not packing enough dakka. | |

The Gundam Leopard from After War Gundam X follows in the footsteps of the Heavyarms from Wing with a multitude of gatling guns, grenade launchers and missile launchers throughout it body. The piece de résistance however is the giant "Inner Arm Gatling" on its left arm. The later Gundam Leopard Destroy replaces this with Twin Beam Cylinders gatlings, one on each arm, to play this trope even straighter. Its Gunpla counterpart, the Leopard Da Vinci of Gundam Build Fighters Try, has a stupidly large set of weaponry in its "Heavy Armament Mode", including two beam cannons, two sets of missile launchers, two Heavy Beam Gatlings, and a beam rifle with a beam shotgun attached. | |

But it didn't even slow him down. The Amazing Fantasy volume 2 headliner Vegas featured Sixgun, a member of the mutant gang Vegas used to run with. He's got six different handguns on his person, and with the help of his powers, likes to use them all at once; the first time he shows this off to the reader, he obliterates a cactus. |

Another sketch has a man beset by a werewolf, which he shoots. The werewolf tells him he should have used silver, but the man picks up a gatling gun and blasts the wolfman to mush. It doesn't end up working — he should have, in fact, used the silver bullets. |

Warhammer 40,000: The Orks are the trope namer. They like their guns to be big and loud and don't really care much about accuracy. This gives them a tremendous enthusiasm for dakka. The phrase "more dakka" itself is from a weapon upgrade in an old version of Codex Orks, "Kustom Job: More Dakka". "Enuff dakka", like "enuff choppa", is the preserve of the Ork gods, but something every Mekboy aspires to one day create. The Ork Stompa is one of the most impressive bits of gun-encrusted Greenskin overengineering. It's a vaguely humanoid heap of scrap metal, armed with four "big shoota" machine guns (one of them twin-linked for extra karnage), three grot-guided missiles (and the option for two more), a flamethrower, a deff kannon (which produces a blast the size of a dinner plate that will reduce nearly everything it hits to chunky salsa), one of the largest chainsaws in the game, and the "supa-gatler", a gatling gun so nice that it fires between two and twelve shots, three times a turn, up until a double is rolled and it runs out of ammo. Gorkanauts particular are armed with the aptly named "Deffstorm Mega-Shoota", a massive and extremely loud gatling gun that has six smaller gatling guns serving as its barrels. If you try to build a shooting-based army out of Orks, expect to take a lot of cheap, rapid-fire guns. This is because of their low ballistic skill; by statistics, 2/3rds of the dice you throw out will fail. According to some old 40k lore, an Ork Space Hulk (a small planetoid with bits of enormous wrecked spaceships, weaponry and propulsion systems fused to it) has roughly 0.1% of 'Enuff Dakka. The point of the "0.1% of 'Enuff Dakka" line is to show off that yes, Warhammer's writers DO have a sense of scale! Sizing up the Ork Spacehulknote anywhere from 4 km across to well over 16 km across; for our purposes a safe middle range would be 10 km across to the estimated 100% of 'Enuff Dakka, you would wind up with a Terra-sized planet made entirely of guns. This is "enuff" to arm the entirety of the Ork species to a comfortable level (though each Ork would naturally be demanding more, as an Ork is wont to do). The Space Marines also make regular use of this trope: The Hurricane Bolter lives this trope. It's literally six "assault rifles" glued together. We put "assault rifles" in quotes because they fire 19mm rockets instead of bullets. Some variants of Space Marine Land Raiders have two Hurricane Bolters, plus a double-mount gatling cannon PLUS either another double barreled 19mm "assault rifle" OR an anti-armor heat ray straight out of The War of the Worlds. Then fill it with about 20,000 rounds of ammunition. Then stuff eight seven-foot tall, genetically enhanced, nigh-invulnerable killing machines encased in about ten tons of Powered Armor (plus teleporters) in the back, and equip them with similar weapons. Then add a fantastically advanced AI that can operate the tank better than its crew, and cover it in claymore mines to kill anyone able to get close. Finally, pour on a complete lack of anything even remotely resembling subtlety. Then you have a Crusader-pattern Land Raider. Said super soldiers are also equipped with wrist-mounted, automatic grenade launchers. And one person in the squad can carry a gatling gun as a heavy weapon, while another can have an automatic rocket launcher. Back those up with Dreadnoughts, fallen space marines on life support and entombed in armored sarcophagi with mounted autocannons and rocket launchers... really, we could go on all day. Space Marines also have the Stalker anti-air support vehicle. Armed with an Icarus Stormcannon Array and controlled by a Servitor, the Stalker can fill the air with lead and can fire at two targets at the same time, allowing the Space Marines the arrogance of trying to fly! The Imperial Fists' variant Stormhammer has 24 barrels of deathnote two turrets with twin-linked Battlecannons, one with a pintle-mounted storm bolter, twin-linked heavy bolter in the hull, and eight twin-linked heavy bolters in each sponson, which can be swapped with twin-linked lascannons, heavy flamers, and multi-meltaguns. It's designed to deal with large mobs of Orks. The Dark Angels specialize in sheer volume of fire. A five-man command squad, accompanied by one of the Chapter's Librarians, can carry the Banner of Devastation, a banner so glorious and zeal-inspiring that it encourages our men to fire their Boltguns (the aforementioned 19mm automatic grenade launchers) twice as fast as anyone else; the Librarian can further allow a specified unit to do so and re-roll misses. Thus, with a ten-man squad next to the Command Squad, that amounts to sixty shots from fifteen men. Given the minimum requirement for an army is two sets of "troops", that would be another ten-man squad, for a total of 100 shots, with likely forty of those re-rolling if missed. Park a Land Raider Crusader next to them and it fires twenty-four shots from its Hurricane Bolters and a further four from the cannon on top. Then there's also the chapter-specific Mortis Dreadnought which forgoes a Dreadnought close combat weapon in exchange for another ranged weapon. The Blood Angels get in on the action somewhat with the addition of their chapter-specific Baal Predator, which exchanges the Predator's main gun for twin-linked Assault Cannons. The Imperial Guard also requires the use of very large numbers of guns — not because of poor accuracy, but because their guns are literally the worst in the setting but dirt cheap. It's not uncommon to see someone throw over 100 dice every shooting phase, especially if you get within rapid fire range... The Guard's Leman Russ Punisher Tank Has a main gun capable of putting out 20 shots a turn, has a three-shot gun in the hull, can take two more sponson mounted three-shot guns, and a pintle mounted three-shot gun, all totaling out to a whopping thirty-two shots per turn, which is about 50% more than your average squad of assault rifle-wielding soldiers. Being and Imperial Guard tank, you can take a three-vehicle squadron of them, totaling out to one unit putting out a whopping 96 shots per turn, which is more than some entire armies do, or three squadrons, totalling nine — or eighteen if you are playing a large enough game — regulating in a ludicrous amount of fire per turn. The Vulture mounts two of the same gun on an airplane, and can be taken in squadrons of three at almost the same price. The Emperor's Fist Tank Company allows you to field up to 12 Leman Russes (four squadrons of 3) in a single army and little else. Yes this allows you to take the Punishers as well. That's a total of 384 shots per turn with the above loadout. On top of this, the formation gives increased accuracy to the Leman Russes, so far more of those shots will hit. You can add to it by upgrading it to a full Cadian Detachment by adding another squad of Leman Russes commanded by a Commander, upping the shot count to 480. Meet the Baneblade, one of the biggest, baddest tanks the Imperium can offer, which mounts 11 barrels of death.note a Battlecannon with coaxial autocannon in the turret, a hull-mounted Demolisher cannon & twin-linked heavy bolter, and a lascannon & twin-linked heavy bolter in each sponson Every single army during the 6th edition found itself in a precarious position with the introduction of Flyers, which were hard to hit due to the rule that all non-Skyfire shots fired at them would be snapshots (only hitting on a roll of a 6 on a 6 sided dice). As Skyfire itself is new, no models at the time had it. The only army that wasn't fazed by this was the Imperial Guard and the Orks, who had means of putting enough firepower into the air that they simply did not care about how impossible the odds were; they were only slightly worse than the conditions they're already used to! The Eldar also get in on this. Their primary weapon is called a Shuriken Catapult, and with good reason. It fires thousands monomolecular shurikens from an electromagnetic launcher in about 3 seconds. The Tau, look at the other races of the 40k'verse, shake their heads with a sense of disappointment and sadness over their foe's refusal to join them, then begin the shooting phase with at least 8+ marker lights (laser designators, which Imperium of Man have taken to calling Valkyrie's Marks). This simply is the precursor to the oncoming storm that begins with squads firing twin barrel plasma projecting "Pulse Rifles" and Ion based weaponry, before it ramps up with a enormous barrage of guided missiles that would have any Macross fan nodding with approval. It concludes then with Railguns that can punch clean through a Leman Russ tanks, and turns the unfortunate crew inside into unrecognizable pink paste. And it only goes up from there with. Apocalypse has Super Heavy Warmachines. The above weaponry? Weak and laughable! A Missile that removes a huge portion of anything on the battlefield from reality? Now we're talking! An attack from planetary bombardment weaponry from an orbiting ship above makes the old infamous and popular Imperial Guard squadron of 3 Basilisk long range Self-Propelled Guns look tame. While not quite up to the levels above, the aptly named Dakkafex is a Carnifex (normally a tank-busting dino-beetle) armed with two sets of Twin-Linked Devourers (with extra brainleech worms!). This allows it to put out twelve twin linked shots a turn or, in laymen's terms, fire twenty-four little maggots in the same time an assault rifle fires two rounds. Much like the Imperial Guard Leman Russ, you can take them in broods of three, giving you plenty of squishy squirmy worm dakka (that is surprisingly good at taking down aircraft)! With the elimination of the Twin-Linked rule in 8th edition, the Dakkafex now flat out rolls 24 dice for it's four devourers, allowing it to outshoot a Leman Russ Punisher (a tank with a mounted gatting gun for a turret). As an added bonus, the Dakkafex now also has access to the Enhanced Senses rule, so not only is it's firepower doubled, it's also way more accurate now. The dakka-flyrant. This has roughly the same loadout, with an added EMP bug flamethrower, and the ability to charge other aircraft and tanks, makes this one of the best, if not the best, flying monstrous creature in the game. Chaos, not being left out of the fun, comes in with the Forgefiend Daemonengine. Mounting not one, but TWO Hades Autocannons, this freak of un-nature can fire eight autocannon shots per turn. That's eight heavy caliber armor piercing shots in the same time as the aforementioned assault rifle fires two shots. If that's not enough to utterly flatten whatever it's looking at, you can opt to trade it's cannons and it's face for Ecto-plasmic cannons, which are essentially three overcharged plasma cannons firing in tandem. And all of this is mounted on what is essentially a robo-demon-dinosaur. The only thing that makes it tame compared to others is that you can't take it in squadrons, severely limiting how many you can deploy... unless you go with the Khorne Daemonkin and basically gain the ability to field up to 8 of these beauties. Taken to its logical, comical degree in 8th edition with the initial Conscript rules; at three points a pop a single conscript is nothing to write home about. But this edition means that any weapon can harm anything, just that you are rolling on 6's. But conscripts now can receive orders just like normal guardsmen, and their one weakness (their pisspoor Leadership) can be completely negated by a nearby Commissar. Cue people using conscripts to literally drown anything and everything in a flurry of disco-light-shows. On top of that, it's calculated that an equal points amount of Conscripts, Platoon Commanders and Commissars can not only withstand the power of a Warlord Titan (the biggest warmachine in the setting), but also kill it in roughly 3 turns with only half casualties. |

Shadowrun has the Vindicator minigun, loved by street samurai for the insane amount of Dakka. Usually vehicle mounted, but particularly strong trolls can use them on foot. The game is full of automatic weapons and fun ways to kill people with them. More recent editions have raised the ante by adding super-machine guns to the list of available guns, which are exactly what they sound in terms of downrange dakka dispatching. | |

Warhammer: While the fantasy setting never quite reaches the level of its offspring IN SPACE, the Empire and Dwarf armies feature "Helblaster Volley Guns" and "Organ Guns" respectively, medieval gatling guns apparently inspired by some of da Vinci's sketches capable of decimating the most heavily armoured units. The Skaven, however, skip straight to an all but modern version, referred to as the Ratling Gun. It has an unfortunate habit of blowing up, however. When most armies' artillery misfires, a bad roll will result in loss of the artillery piece and its crew. When Skaven artillery misfires, it tends to result in the loss of the gun, its crew, and everything in a fifty meter radius. | |

The Punisher: Frank Castle has used an M60 medium machine gun numerous times, frequently firing hundreds of rounds out of it to slaughter his enemies. During The Punisher: Welcome Back, Frank storyline, Frank stalks an Arizona hitman hired to kill him. He notes the man is a Gunslinger who outdrew three out of four state troopers, and dodged the bullet of the fourth. Frank guns him down with a Uzi, noting that dodging a bullet doesn't mean you can dodge thirty of them. During a team-up, Spider-Man once asked him if he had his own lead mine. Leading to an Ironic Echo later when Frank asked him if he bought all that webbing wholesale. |

It has no fewer than four 75mm automatic chainguns, but these are almost side-arms compared to the six Wave Motion Guns it sports between its two modes (two twin-barreled high-energy beam cannons on its back as a mobile armor, three 1580mm chest-mounted cannons and one 200mm face-mounted cannon that fire multi-phase energy in mobile suit mode), twenty thermal-plasma composite cannons, ten beam cannons (which can be detached as a pair of Attack Drones sporting five cannons each), and twenty-four missile launchers. | |

TRON: Legacy: Castor's laser cane is the only man-portable firearm in the entire movie, and it boasts a quite impressive fire rate. The shots even bounce around the room when they hit a wall, which most of them do. The Light Fighter that the protagonists hijack during the finale isn't precisely a bomber but comes with the secondary armaments of a WW II one: heavy machine guns in the front and a twin-linked tail gun turret. Being a Light vehicle, it's also equipped with the mandatory light wall emitters. |

This trope is omnipresent in Andromeda. Most ships are armed with relatively low-yield weapons (for sci-fi space warfare) with incredibly high rates of fire. This often crosses over with a Macross Missile Massacre, as kinetic missiles are also fired in huge volleys. For the ultimate example, see the Siege Perilous-class Deep Stand-off Attack Ship II (180 missile launchers, 24 point-defense laser turrets, 4 AP cannons). Its goal is to kill fleets with more dakka. In ground combat, most also tend to prefer more dakka guns with the added bonus that most such weapons fire guided drones. | |

The Star Wars: Clone Wars miniseries has two main elements: incredibly awesome feats by the Jedi (and Grievous), and dakka. Unlike the movies, every single weapon is on full automatic at all times, and the most common tactic for both Republic and Confederacy is to place their army in front the opposing army and fire repeatedly until one side stops moving. Even the red shirts use BFGs, like a chest-mounted quad-barreled anti-ship cannon (a similar type is later seen mounted into the Millennium Falcon for point defense). Reaches its peak in the fourth episode, the Republic battle tanks possessing so much dakka that they mow through whole city blocks in mere seconds. In Star Wars: The Clone Wars series this trope is one of the main reasons the Separatists have any victories at all. |

The Dreadnought from Sonic X: Dark Chaos is built entirely around this trope. It seems unarmed at first glance, until it reveals its extremely powerful hidden arsenal. It's actually described as carrying "enough guns to make an Ork blush.". And during the final battle, the ship unleashes Super Duper Mega Ultra Extreme Wizard Mode — turning it into a flying mass of guns and missile launchers that promptly massacres an entire Demon battle group. While playing the 1812 Overture at full volume. Eric the Hedgehog's character basically revolves around this trope. His Super form, rather than giving him new powers or speed like Sonic, allows him to conjure gigantic guns out of thin air via Clap Your Hands If You Believe. |

The defense mechanism of the eponymous ship in the new Battlestar Galactica is to simply open fire in flak mode with all of its many hundreds of point-defence guns and main batteries in all directions simultaneously, creating a 360-degree blizzard of fire around the ship which is quite effective at obliterating anything that comes near it. Another battlestar, the Pegasus, has even more dakka, armed with frontal batteries capable of putting enormous holes in Cylon basestars. The Galactica is on the receiving end in the final battle, when they jump right next to the Cylon colony-world and immediately find themselves being hammered from three sides by quad-barreled rapid-firing cannons. |

In the Winter Olympics Special on Top Gear, Jeremy Clarkson substituted an MP5 for the usual rifle in the biathlon. Notably, he shows why this is a bad idea in reality. Against James May, who uses the standard sporting rifle, he does terribly. If you want a reference, at one point Jeremy manages to knock down a tree with his gunfire. | |

The police force in South Park, led by Officer Yates. In fact, any organization (the FBI, the military, etc.) that uses guns will rely on this trope.

Biggles once put in something called a zone call on a patch of woodland where a German attack force was hiding out. The result was every single weapon within ten miles firing on that one little wood. (Note: This was an actual American tactical innovation, called "all guns in range," in WWII. The Germans thought it was both crazy and extremely unfair.) | |

The Quad in Decomposing Angel is a swiveling rig of four Dillon Aero machine-guns. It sees plenty of use. * The Shadowrun story anthology Into The Shadows has a number of examples of this trope.

War Machine has been adding more and more guns to his armor. For an illustration of the result, check out the picture for the There Is No Kill Like Overkill trope. For a while, Rhodey's armor had the capability to magnetically lock any piece of machinery to itself, meaning he could repurpose any weapon he found from downed enemies or destroyed vehicles. Even at his current, normal weapon loadout, he's more heavily armed than pretty much any Marvel hero. | |

The Hurricane Bolter lives this trope. It's literally six "assault rifles" glued together. We put "assault rifles" in quotes because they fire 19mm rockets instead of bullets. Some variants of Space Marine Land Raiders have two Hurricane Bolters, plus a double-mount gatling cannon PLUS either another double barreled 19mm "assault rifle" OR an anti-armor heat ray straight out of The War of the Worlds. Then fill it with about 20,000 rounds of ammunition. | |

Karen in Soul Link loves to use as much as dakka as possible. Near the end, most of the enemies she's fighting having a Healing Factor working in their favor, but enough dakka will finish them off, so she can fare well. To its credit, the anime does open with that scene of a gang of outlaws shooting (half)a saloon to pieces with nothing but assault rifle fire. |

In an early scene, the commandos cut down a good portion of the surrounding jungle with automatic fire from assault rifles, the famous "Old Painless" handheld minigun, and grenade launchers. Predator 2. When the Predator attacks the Jamaicans in the Colombian drug lord's apartment they unload a huge amount of firepower at him. Predators. In a nod to the first film, Husky Russkie Nikolai uses a handheld minigun similar to Blain's "Old Painless." He successfully kills a number of Predator hounds by shooting them a lot. |

When officials have allowed an infestation to advance to the Screamer stage, he brings along a new toy: a modified, multi-barreled, mechanized anti-aircraft gun. Baiting the things in with heat sources, the look on his face as dozens of them rise over the hill and he opens fire is like a kid on Christmas morning. Knowing Burt though, he's probably disappointed he couldn't get incendiary ammunition. | |

Feng Shui understands the need for dakka. The Autofire rules give you increased damage at the cost of an AV penalty for every three three-round bursts you throw out, and the biggest automatic weapons give you a reduced Outcome needed to put down mooks, with the biggest of the bunch being the Buro Hellharrower from the corebook and the cyber-mounted Minigun from "Gorilla Warfare," the Jammer sourcebook. Plus there are many Gun Schticks that address those in need of More Dakka, among them Both Guns Blazing and Carnival of Carnage from the main book, 10,000 Bullets and Bullet Storm from "Golden Comeback," and Who Wants Some from "Gorilla Warfare." | |

1632 series: The M60 machine gun that Frank Jackson "appropriated" when leaving Vietnam made quite an impression on the armies fighting the Americans and Swedes. The "lots of non-automatic guns firing" variant is employed by a Danish navy captain in bringing down Hans Richter's aircraft in 1633. This trope is the reason that the "flying artillery" and mitrailleuse (both based on Real Life weapons) are employed by the army and navy, respectively, in an application of rapid fire within the tech base of the time. |

The Matrix likes this one. Neo's quest to rescue Morpheus from the Agents involves a bombastic and daring plan that nobody has ever tried before. This translates to absolutely atrocious amounts of firepower, in a sequence of scenes where Neo and Trinity shoot up a skyscraper lobby, shoot their way to the top, shoot a lot of SWAT, shoot an Agent in the head, and then Neo fires a minigun from a helicopter to kill three Agents, complete with gratuitous Slow Motion shots devoted to the shell casings falling from the gun. Neo's approach to the mission is summed up in the famous line delivered during their preparation: In the sequels, there's the huge machine guns mounted on Zion's resident Mini-Mecha and ships with turrets mounting dual machine guns. The Merovingian's mooks also used this trope unsuccessfully in The Matrix Reloaded against Neo, who doesn't need to Dodge the Bullet anymore, so it makes no difference how many there are. |

GURPS Ultra-Tech has the Grav Heavy Needler, a rifle-sized weapon that fires 100 explosive armor piercing rounds per second with superscience stabilizers that give it extreme accuracy and zero recoil.

Many races in Babylon 5 can do this, but Earth Alliance and the Centauri Republic are the best at it: Earth Alliance weapons can fire with average speed and sufficient accuracy to shoot down enemy fire, while Centauri weapons fire so fast that a single Centauri warship could casually overwhelm the interceptors (the guns with that extreme accuracy) of the titular station while firing on a Narn warship and a squadron of Starfuries. | |

This is done many times in Hellsing. Alucard wields pistols that can apparently fire more than their own weight in bullets without reloading. Taken to the extreme with Seras and her Harkonnen II, a pair of 30mm cannons weighing over 500 kilos each. While they're only semi-automatic weapons and should avert the trope, Seras can pull the trigger fast enough to make the trope apply, something she does to great effect against a Nazi airship sent to attack Hellsing HQ. |

Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers sometimes puts quite some dakka into the paws of chipmunks. "Le Purrfect Crime" has a nice Rambo-meets-Predator spoof: After suffering from Laser-Guided Amnesia, Dale is turned into RamDale by giving him a crank-operated coffee bean gun, the Decaffeinator, with an ammo container that he carries on his back. In "Good Times, Bat Times", the Rangers bring the dakka themselves: The Bagpipe Express, quickly cobbled together by Gadget, can shoot small round pebbles from one of its pipes. If you feed a whole lot of them through a funnel (which Chip does), you get fully automatic pebble spam. |

Arnage of Huckebein from Magical Record Lyrical Nanoha Force. In the first battle we see her in, she was targeted by approximately twenty five million energy bullets. She responded by activating her Divider, which comprised of a pair of gatling guns strapped together and a multiple rocket launcher. She then proceeded to counter the entire Beam Spam barrage with a combination of this and Macross Missile Massacre. Reinforce did this earlier Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's when she upgraded Fate's Photon Lancer to Photon Lancer Genocide Shift. |

The "Death Blossom" attack of The Last Starfighter. Justified in this case, as it's a one-shot last-resort weapon meant to take out all enemies at close range. | |

Infinity: This is often a useful investment. Since you can fire up to your Burst value with each attack Order, high rates of fire mean more efficient use of Orders to attack, making troops with Spitfires and heavy machine guns very scary. | |

Deadpool has this on his mind at all times. He even has a comic issue, specifically the second issue, named after this trope! Not to mention he has a shelf in his (now-vanished) video game with a Three Barreled Chain Gun, a multitude of automatic weaponry, and a special pistol that resembles a certain "Noisy Cricket". | |

Many Transformers, especially the god Primus◊ from Cybertron. He's a robot that transforms into a planet the size of Saturn. In robot mode he's equipped with shoulder-mounted cannons, shoulder-mounted missile pods, wrist mounted twin barrel guns, and huge gun racks for legs with missile launchers, more missile pods, cannons, and such goodies. And did we mention he's the size of SATURN? Other people feel proud because they have 40mm cannons. He has 40Mm cannons! That's Megameters, or 1,000,000 meters. If you give him four space-exploring spaceships, and he'll merge them into the Ark, which in itself is a Mother-Of-All BFG's with the power to close a universe-eating black hole! Beast Wars has Rhinox and his "Chainguns of Doom". Waspinator demonstrates the effects of the Chainguns of Doom. Coming of the Fuzors sees the Maximals, devoid of Optimus Primal's leadership and with Rhinox on a quest to revive their leader, facing an all-out attack from the Predacons. Dinobot's response? Head to the Wall of Weapons and load up as much weaponry as he can feasibly carry. As befitting an intergalactic arms dealer, Animated Swindle understands the need for moar dakka. In addition to his arm-mounted gun, he's got two over-the-shoulder guns, a gatling gun in his chest, and his hands both change into two twin-barreled guns. Transformers: Prime brings us Skyquake, who's primary weapon is a Transformer-sized laser gatling cannon. |

A scene in Maniac Cop 2 has the eponymous Ax-Crazy Officer Matt Cordell sneak into the police station, shoot everyone in the target range and afterward abandon his gun for a much, much bigger one before going upstairs into the offices and shooting everyone, crashing through several walls (both solid and glass) in the process. | |

FLCL Episode 5 takes this to extreme levels, starting off with a simple duel with toy guns (and one real sniper weapon), then taking it into a duel with actual guns between Haruko and Amarao (backed up by dozens of agents), and culminating in the creation of a Humongous Mecha hand, with a hand on the end of each finger, and a different type of gun in each of these hands. Even the episode's Japanese name, Bura-bure (in the English dub, it was called Brittle Bullet) is onomatopoeic of gunfire. | |

Jovian Chronicles has multiple examples of this. Notable examples in the personal scale are the Gauss Shotgun, which fires a rapid burst to get the multi shot effect, and a squad automatic weapon that is more than capable of cutting down an armored man with single shot, has among the highest rates of fire for a man portable weapon in game, carries hundreds of rounds of ammo, and tosses in an underslung grenade launcher for kicks. In the vehicle scale, rapid fire mass drivers are a common weapon. Even the mecha mounted sniper rifles are capable of sending out a hail of projectiles. | |

In Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "The Best of Both Worlds", we see that the Enterprise-D can, indeed, boast impressive dakka. If only someone besides Worf pulled the trigger. We do get to see it in action in the Grand Finale of Star Trek: Picard with Crusher at the controls. | |
